We all have our personal styles and ways of expressing our uniqueness, but a custom fragrance expresses
your individuality in a way that truly can’t be duplicated.

Men and women from all walks of life have sought my expertise in blending custom fragrances. Many
are fragrance enthusiasts who want to stand apart from the crowd. Some come because they’ve never
been able to find just the right combination of scents that work with their body chemistry.

When creating a custom fragrance, my goal is to link the brain’s centers that relate scent and emotion.
Fragrance bypasses all filters and travels directly to the limbic system, the oldest part of the brain where
our deepest memories are stored. None of the other senses can compare to the sense of smell in its
uncanny ability to elicit deep emotional responses from our memories. This is the source of my inspiration.

the custom fragrance experience

A consultation takes an hour to an hour and a half, beginning with
a questionnaire that will help lead us in the perfect “scent” direction
for you. I then choose a selection of appropriate aromas from a
collection of over 700 fragrances for you to sample. After you’ve
chosen the aromas you find most appealing, I build the fragrance
directly on your skin—drop-by-drop—until it becomes the right
scent for you!

The formula that you have inspired and worked to create will be
recorded and kept on file. In the future when you need more of
your custom fragrance, simply contact us to order more. You also
may order body lotion and bath gel in your signature fragrance.

where does it happen?

Consultations are generally held at my fragrance
studio in Boston’s Back Bay where you can relax
and enjoy a cup of tea in the living room setting
while we create your individual fragrance. I also
have a portable fragrance studio available if you
would prefer to have me come to you.

can I give this as a gift?

Yes. A custom fragrance is the ideal gift for the
“person who has everything” or to celebrate a
birthday, engagement or anniversary. It’s also a
great and unique way to say thank you.

fragrance parties

Share the experience of creating a custom fragrance
with your closest friends. A fragrance party allows
you and up-to-four friends to each have your own
fragrance created in a fun and intimate environment.
Spend a few hours together for an abridged version
of the custom fragrance experience at my studio, or
I can bring my traveling studio to you. At the end,
you will each leave with your own unique fragrance,
as well some additional insight into one another’s
favorite memories.

scents for events

I can also blend custom scents to commemorate
special occasions such as weddings, anniversaries,
and birthdays.

The night before her rehersal dinner, Tara introduced me to her
seven birdesmaids, each selected for that special place they hold in her life. I worked with each of them to
create her own perfume as the ultimate thank you from Tara for a lifetime fo friendship and love.
